This morning around 7.45, I was voter #35. Parking lot outside was mostly empty. No candidates electioneering, just two kids with a Common Cause petition. Quite a change from last year.

Thing I didn't expect to hear on the radio yesterday: I'm walking by one of the radios at work and it's tuned to the hot dance hits station. They're just finishing up "Open Your Heart" and the DJ (or programmable DJ-bot) comes on, does a legal ID and delivers an obvious tagline ("songs you can sing along to" or something like that). And proceeds to play "One More Time" by Daft Punk. Quoi? Did Daft Punk break mainstream and I missed it? I think that was actually more surprising to me than the rock station playing Fugazi.
